Bulldozers demolish buildings on March 14, 2022, as part of a $20 billion clearance and construction government project that stands to displace half-a-million people in Saudi Arabia’s second city Jeddah. – The demolitions risk fuelling anti-government sentiment in the 30-plus neighbourhoods that have been targeted, many of which housed a mix of Saudis and foreigners from other Arab countries and Asia. Evicted residents had been living in the homes for up to 60 years, said ALan NGO. Some were driven out when their power and water was cut off, or threatened with jail for disobeying an eviction order, it added. (Photo by AFP) (Photo by -/AFP via Getty Images)
